THEY SENT FOR JESUS
YOUR FRIEND’S ABOUT TO DIE
BUT TARRIED HE STILL ON BEHIND
SO THEY LAID LAZARUS IN A TOMB
AND SAID THEIR LAST GOODBYE
THEN COMING DOWN THE ROAD
WAS JESUS RIGHT ON TIME
JUST HOLD ON MY CHILD
BECAUSE HE’S NOT TO FAR AWAY
AND HE KNOWS YOUR NEED BEFORE YOU PRAY
SO WHEN YOUR FEET ARE WEEARY
FROM THE MOUNTAIN YOU HAVE CLIMBED
LOOK AHEAD HERE COMES JESUS RIGHT ON TIME
I’VE STRUGGLED THROUGH LIFE’S DESERTS
THEY WERE SO HOT AND DRY
TILL IT SEEMED ALL HOPE WAS GONE
AND I WOULD DIE
AND I’VE WONDERED WHERE WAS HE
IS HE STILL A FRIEND OF MINE
THEN COMING DOWN THE ROAD
WAS JESUS RIGHT ON TIME
